Abstract

A circuit having an array of Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs); a sampling order selector configured to select a sampling order of the ADCs and output corresponding sampling order control words; sampling pulse generators coupled between the sampling order selector and the respective ADCs, and configured to output respective sampling pulses based on the respective sampling order control words, wherein the ADCs are configured to sample and convert analog data into digital data in response to the sampling pulses; and a single clock generator configured to distribute a delay-matched clock to each of the ADCs in parallel, to each of the sampling pulse generators in parallel, and to the sampling order selector.
